Episode 125: Choosing Discomfort
Welcome to Episode 125 of The Endless Growth Podcast!
This week, Alex and Edgar kick things off with smoky skies, nearby wildfires, and memories of campfire smells that were… less than pleasant. From small-town neighbors who turned empty lots into pop-up campgrounds to cinematic nostalgia over Transformers and Freaky Friday, they weave in laughs and personal stories about weekends at the movies and the simple comfort of a clean house.
The conversation then shifts into the grind, balancing work, gym sessions, and chores, and how reframing busyness into gratitude can change your outlook. Alex shares how his new sales job pushes him out of his comfort zone, from mastering prospecting and video pitches to reverse-engineering ad strategies. Edgar reflects on the hard truths of entrepreneurship, the risks of over-comfort, and why giving 100% matters in any role.
In a special “five questions” segment, they open up about proudest podcast moments, guests they’d love to interview, lessons from setbacks that became setups, and the rules they live by. From near-missed goals to unexpected growth, the episode blends candid reflections, career wisdom, and plenty of banter, reminding you that progress often happens when you least expect it.
Thanks for listening. Let’s keep growing together.
